STOP PRESS! Girl Friday Weddings Named by The Knot as the 10  Best Wedding Consultants

Too Busy to Be a Bride? Girl Friday, at your service.

Your wedding day should be one of the best days of your life...memorable for all the right reasons! We are not like most conventional wedding planners who are there to advise you on what the wedding day should look like. In other words, we are not there to recommend reception venues or direct you to specific vendors. Usually these kinds of planners charge out a set retainer - anywhere between 10-20% of your budget. This can get quite expensive, especially depending on your taste!

Girl Friday is the name traditionally given to a female assistant completing a range of duties, ready to help at your every whim. And we like to think of ourselves as Personal Assistants. We are a team ready to take on any job that you don't want to do. Perhaps you need a hand with typing out the order of service, formatting your seating chart or picking up last minute items (even long lost Aunty May from the airport!). We can even be there on the big day to make sure things run smoothly. It doesn’t really matter what the task is, because we are always ready for a challenge. 

We are located in Sydney and enjoy hands on work, but we are happy to help our interstate and even international Brides where we are able to work remotely. We are at your service, and all for an affordable price.

Who said Personal Assistants were for the rich & famous.

If you think that a Personal Assistant is not within your budget, think again. Often if our planners and assistants are engaged early enough in the process, we can help save you money by negotiating contracts with your vendors, and better yet, get you discounts! So not only are our services subsidised by the money we can save you, but you also get to enjoy the benefits of someone taking the stress of coordinating your day off your hands.

For most couples, working to a budget (whatever it may be) will be top of mind. With our planning packages starting from as little as $325, and our ‘day of’ coordination starting from $300, we are able to suit most budgets.

Ready to get started?

We usually like to have an informal chat about your ideas, and how we can help you. This might be over the phone, at the local coffee shop, your home or even your office. You may have a list of things that you would like us to do. Or alternatively you may need us to run through a checklist with you, to make sure that everything has been done and to fill any gaps where we can. Together, we can identify a list of tasks that need doing, and provide you with a quote of what needs to be done

Be indulgent, you deserve a worry free day.
